Art Nr129 Dollmagazine.Pdf Rare world children Black dolls and their history By: Jolie van der Klis Antique black dolls are rare — I actually wanted to write this line last year, to tell the history of the dolls that we may remember from childhood. At the time, I waived it: I didn't want to throw any fuel on any discussion.*) Meanwhile, even much more has happened on the world stage, the brutal murder of George Floyd, one of the many victims of police prejudice. I could of course postpone the article again, but, as I wondered down-hearted: how many years will I postpone it? *) Note: This refers to an awkward debate in The Netherlands, about the altered tradition of the Dutch Santaclaus and his companion, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zwarte_Piet Exhibition in Paris It has been two years since Deborah Neff exhibited her unique collection of antique black dolls in Paris. Handmade from fabric and leather, flour sacks and buttons, by unknown Americans with an African background. These dolls were intended as play dolls: they can sometimes be seen in old family photos. Some are already 180 years old. Photo: press release exhibition at La Maison Rouge, Deborah Neff dolls Caricatures Manufacturers who made black dolls hardly existed at the time; if they were made, the dolls were gross caricatures. Like this doll, that has all the features of a tap dancer from the humiliating Minstrel shows. Photo: Detail undated wooden caricature Doll maker Leo Moss An exception to that rule is doll maker Leo Moss. In the early 1900s he made unique portrait dolls, all modeled after an existing child, the name of which has sometimes been preserved. As a basis, he used rejected factory dolls, on which he modeled a paper mache portrait, complete with the child's unique features and hairstyle. He portrayed the children as they sat before him, laughing or crying, with their own looks and character. These dolls are extremely rare: probably fewer than 100 still exist. You will find them almost exclusively in American museums. Photo: Portrait child doll of Leo Moss around 1908, see video by Florence Theriault Photo: Portrait baby doll of Leo Mos, see video by Florence Theriault Photo: Self-portrait, Leo Moss Pastor R.H. Boyd orders dolls in Europe "Why can I only find scarecrows as a doll for my children?" Reverend R.H. Boyd wondered when he saw just dolls with gross caricatures for sale in America. He decided to order black dolls in Europe. He marketed these dolls in the United States in 1908 and founded the National Negro*) Doll Company. *) This word had a different connotation 120 years ago than it does today. Photo: Nashville Globe, August 28, 1908, advertisement by R.H. Boyd's Negro*) Doll Company *) This word had a different connotation 120 years ago than it does today. Photos of African Americans Reportedly, Boyd sent photographs to the German firm to help them create more realistic doll-molds. For example, the dolls got a bit wider nose and fuller lips than the earlier black European dolls from the same molds as pink dolls. Later, when WWI is approaching, he has the dolls made in the United States. Ultimately, his business is not profitable, but his initiative marks a turning point in the history of black dolls. Photo: Debbie Behan Garrett, Private Collection, Antique Unis France Black Doll in the USA, Wikipedia Never seen a person of colour In 19th and early 20th century Europe, many Europeans had never seen anyone with a non-European appearance. At that time, interest in non-European peoples arose. Newspapers and magazines, with travel reports, are read; papers that sometimes already contained photos. Photo: Press photo Harpers, 1886, Geronimo in the war between Indigenous Americans and colonists Photo: Eichhorn & Söhne, the makers of this porcelain Native American from 1910, undoubtedly saw the press photo of Harpers and based the mold on it. Own face Increasingly, the dolls not only get a different colour and exotic costumes, but also actual characteristics of the people they represent. A wider nose, slightly fuller lips or almond-shaped eyes. Photo: LieblingsBaby by Kämmer & Reinhardt, catalog 1928 Large doll-companies such as Jumeau, Heubach, Recknagel, Kestner, Simon & Halbig, Kämmer & Reinhardt, Armand Marseille brought beautiful 'exotic' (note: this word 'exotic' refers to the use of the word those days, literally meaning 'from an other country'; in most European languages the word 'exotic' is still used with its original literral meaning) dolls to the market. Often with a lot of attention for exotic (original foreign) clothing, silk kimonos, turbans, veils or chamois fringes. Sometimes simple or as clichéd as the peasant women on clogs: with only a few beads and raffia skirts. Photo: Dream Baby Armand Marseille Germany, 341 / 4K, 1926 (Private collection Jolie van der Klis) Photo: The colour layer of these dolls is fragile ... (Web ad detail) Rare, also in museums All in all, these antique black dolls are rare. Sometimes in doll museums, among the hundreds of dolls, you only see a few non- European or black models. Such a rare model often comes with a hefty price, especially for the biscuit porcelain dolls. Photo: Dolls from different cultures and peoples, Ferrières doll-museum, Belgium (Jolie van der Klis) More often, you will come across the black dolls from the 1930s, made of composition or painted bisque. Photo: Keramische Werke Gräfenhain 134, 1932, with 'flirt/sleep eyes', left-right- looking (Private collection Jolie van der Klis) Just like you'll see the plastic chliché dolls from after WWII more often. The latter can be of mediocre quality. A souvenir doll like this, from the fifties of South Africa, is not something I would ever like to buy or exhibit. Photo: Souvenir doll from South Africa, with a cross-eyed Minstrel resemblance, 1950s In the 1960s, doll manufacturers developed more dolls in which every child could identify. Often that meant no more than just another colour of plastic in the same basic mold as that for pink dolls. Photo: Composition Doll, mark Wildebras Netherlands, rare, 1950s, made with the same mold as their pink model (Private collection Jolie van der Klis) Photo: Fifties and sixties, including Italian dolls, Doll Museum Lisbon (Jolie van der Klis) Sasha Morgenthaler: coffee-coloured dolls In the 1960s, Sasha Morgenthaler chose to let her dolls be anything but children's caricatures. No always-smiling ideal bulb-cheek face, in which not every child can identify. She also made her dolls 'coffee-coloured', so that they would all be independent of ethnicity. Photo: Sasha brunette in gingham (Trendon) and early girl baby doll (1970-1978) (Private collection Jolie van der Klis) In the early 1970s she added additional colour and hairstyle variation. Photo: Sasha baby doll black Play dolls for every child Nowadays, most doll brands have sweet dolls in more skin tone and models: a doll for each child to recognize themselves. And if you are looking for a doll for a child with vitiligo or port-wine stain, you can contact doll maker Ellen Brudet in Amsterdam-Noord. Special porcelain dolls by Annette Himstedt When talking about Black dolls, or dolls as world children, you can't leave Annette Himstedt unnamed. You can rightly call all her dolls world children. She seems to have respectfully studied and depicted every people, every culture, every character. Her dolls are designed as play dolls, and some, in limited edition, also in porcelain. Caribbean girls from Martinique In the collection of Janny van Beveren I saw these special porcelain Himstedt dolls, Orja and Keshia, girls from the Caribbean island of Martinique. I asked Janny if I could include the photos here: they are rare and would form a nice ending to this article. They show so much loving detail and, reportedly, have been back in the ceramic oven 50 times to get the colour tones right. If Leo Moss and Pastor Boyd had been able to see the Himstedt dolls, they may have seen the positive future that Himstedt shows us: real world children with their own characters.

  • Dolls and Waste in Italian Children's Literature
    Treasure to Trash, Trash to Treasure: Dolls and Waste in Italian Children’s Literature Cristina Mazzoni A growing preoccupation with waste, trash, and obsolescence may be observed in Western societies beginning in the late nineteenth century and continuing throughout the twentieth and into the twenty-first. This phenomenon is largely due to the rapid and intense development of industrialization and consumer culture—the very movement that eventually prompted the birth, in late nineteenth-century Italy, of the industrial production of dolls.1 A reflection of this historical and societal correlation between dolls and trash, confirmed by connections that are also psychological and philosophical, may be read in several literary texts for children written by Italian women between the late nineteenth and the late twentieth centuries. In each of these narratives, the young protagonists own dolls that, though often on the verge of being dumped into the trash bin, play a crucial role in the formation of the protagonist’s identity—a process represented as shaped by both psychological and material forces. The connection made by women between dolls and trash in Italian children’s literature may be read as a culturally specific instance of the wider-ranging reflection on the role of trash in the formation of value, and even of the self.2 Certainly, psychological models of child development have much to teach us about the role dolls play in the formation of young people’s identity.3 While keeping these models in mind, my reading of dolls in Italian children’s litera- ture, however, relies more overtly on philosophical and social reflections on trash, such as those by Italo Calvino, Gay Hawkins, Greg Kennedy, and John Scanlan.

    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 099 543 CE 002 628 AUTHOR Berger, Betty M. TITLE Doll Collecting; A Course Designed for the Adult Education Student. PUB DATE Jul 74 NOTE 145p.; Ed.D. Dissertation, Walden University EDRS PRICE MF-$0.75 HC-$6.60 PLUS POSTAGE DESCRIPTORS *Adult Education; *Course Content; Course Descriptions; *Doctoral Theses; Teacher Developed Materials; *Teaching Techniques IDENTIFIERS *Doll Collecting ABSTRACT The author has attempted to organize the many materials to be found on doll collecting into a course which will provide a foundation of know]edge for appreciating and evaluating old dolls. The course has been divided into sessions in which old dolls will be studied by type (images, idols, and early playthings; child, doll, and social realities; wooden dolls; wax dolls; papier mache and composition; china and parian; bisque dolls, cloth dolls; celluloid, metal, leather, and rubber dolls; and doll art in America) in basically the same chronological order in which they achieved popularity in the marketplace (1800-1925). The instructor is urged to employ a variety of teaching strategies in the presentation of the material. A mixture of lecture, slides, show and tell, and much student participation is encouraged. Handouts are provided whichcan be given to students at the end of each session. Brief annotated bibliographies appear at the end of each chapter,as well as a selected bibliography at the end of the course. Thecourse has been designed to introduce the beginning doll collector to the techniques employed in the manufacture of old dolls, to help the novice identify a doll of excellent artistic merit, and to acquaint the collector with some of the better known names in doll making.

    Anais do VII Seminário Fazendo Gênero 28, 29 e 30 de 2006 Sobre gênero e preconceitos: Estudos em análise crítica do discurso – ST 02 Danielle Barbosa Lins de Almeida - UFSC/UFPB Viviane M. Heberle - UFSC As Bonecas da Contemporaneidade: Representações Midiáticas da Identidade Feminina O objetivo desse artigo é propor uma reflexão acerca dos brinquedos enquanto representações semióticas de ‘atores sociais de gênero’ (Caldas Coulthard & van Leeuwen, 2002), a partir da discussão sobre os papéis que bonecas contemporâneas de moda como Barbie, Susi e The Bratz evocam, a fim de examinar como a identidade feminina vem sendo representada pela mídia de dois países distintos – Brasil e Estados Unidos – através de típicas expressões do universo infantil. A análise inclui desvendar alguns dos valores que são incorporados às referidas representações bem como investigar o potencial de negociação da criança no sentido de desafiar as estruturas de significado que subjazem as identidades das chamadas ‘bonecas da contemporaneidade’. Palavras-Chave: bonecas, papéis, identidade. 1. Introdução Em suas inúmeras versões pelo mundo afora, as bonecas são mais comumente conhecidas por seu papel como objetos tridimensionais pertencentes ao universo infantil. Como símbolo inconfundível da infância, o mundo das bonecas não tem sido suficientemente explorado em pesquisas acadêmicas, visto que há relativamente poucos estudos que enfatizam a função das bonecas como fonte de conhecimento social, histórico e cultural (Peers, 2004). Historicamente, em sociedades como o Egito e a Melanésia, às bonecas eram atribuídas uma função mística, sendo então vistas como forma de se espantar maus espíritos e enfermidades, de se conferir proteção e de se prover acesso direto às dimensões espirituais da vida (Fraser, apud Kline, 1993, p.

  • The Woman-Object's Glorious New Clothes
    The Woman-Object’s Glorious New Clothes Liz Conor. The Spectacular Modern Woman: Feminine Visibility in the 1920s. Bloomington: Indiana UP, 2004. ISBN 0 253 21670 2. Juliette Peers. The Fashion Doll: From Bébé Jumeau to Barbie. Oxford and New York: Berg, 2004. ISBN 1 85973 743 9. Robyn Walton “Dolls raise so many issues about the representation and cultural posi- tioning of the feminine in society,” writes Juliette Peers in the “Introduction” to her book The Fashion Doll (Peers: 8). Liz Conor might well have begun her text about feminine visibility by using the same statement, substituting for “dolls” the words “mass media images of women.” “Appearance” and “appearing,” in their multiple meanings, are also key words for both au- thors. Peers’s primary interest is fashionably dressed dolls’ appearance (looks) and appearance (emergence) in the market-place, while Conor elaborates on the emergence of the “new formation of subjectivity” she calls the Modern Appearing Woman in the technologically enhanced ocular field of the 1920s. Discussing these two books in terms of their covers is a temptation not to be resisted since each text is so much about representation. Appropri- ately, a photographic image of a woman or an inorganic 3D representation of a woman occupies each cover. The front of Peers’s book shows a styl- ishly dressed young woman ostensibly adjusting her underwear in the company of an up-to-date doll; the front of Conor’s is occupied by the glamorously painted face of a store display dummy or mannequin.
